Case 3

If Employee C is scheduled to work 4 shifts (Wednesday and Thursday 10:00 AM to 2:00 PM, Friday 8:00 PM to 2:00 AM, and Saturday 12:00 PM to 6:00 PM), the Schedule Validation report returns a violation.

Although Friday’s shift crosses into Saturday, that shift is counted against the day it begins (Friday). Since Employee C is scheduled to work Wednesday through Saturday (4 consecutive days), the rule is violated because it exceeds the rule’s value (3).
